From d952cbb1908b54c6a04f37c8b0924a49cdb5997d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Junio C Hamano Date: Fri, 16 May 2014 10:18:25 -0700 Subject: request-pull: resurrect for-linus -> tags/for-linus DWIM Older versions of Git before v1.7.10 did not DWIM $ git pull $URL for-linus to the tag "tags/for-linus" and the users were required to say $ git pull $URL tags/for-linus instead. Because newer versions of Git works either way, request-pull used to show tags/for-linus when asked $ git request-pull origin/master $URL for-linus The recent updates broke this and in the output we see "for-linus" without the "tags/" prefix. As v1.7.10 is more than 2 years old, this should matter very little in practice, but resurrecting it is very simple.
